Welcome to the first addition of Magic Mondays, for those of you who aren’t familiar with Magic: The Gathering, it’s a Trading Card that’s been around for 20 years now. It’s very comprehensive, in-depth, and very fun to play. So each Monday I’ll either be releasing a new set of decks or something else Magic related. At the moment I just have the logo (as you can see above), but I am working on making a custom banner for the series. So without further ado, I present to you the Izzet vs Golgari Duel Decks.

The Izzet League, under the ingenious mind of its guildmaster, the dragon Niv-Mizzet, has dabbled, delved, and decoded many mysteries under its insatiable thirst for knowledge. Now the dracomagus seeks to plumb the depths of Ravnica’s undercity. But the Golgari don’t welcome interlopers in their dark, mouldy realm.

Under the command of the elvish lich lord Jarad, the Golgari have dwelled in the darkness long enough. The Swarm grows restless and its rot farms need fresh corpses. Jarad believes the time is right to teach Niv-Mizzet’s magewrights a lesson: that there is no place for Izzet research in the vicious cycle of life and death.
